About this home
Welcome to 106 Castle Street, where historic charm and modern efficiency come together in one of Wilmington's most desirable downtown locations. Nestled along picturesque, brick-lined Castle Street, this inviting home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the character and walkability of the Historic District while sitting just outside the local historic registry, which gives you more freedom for future improvements and updates. A standout feature is the fully paid-off solar panel system, so the new owner gets the benefits of renewable energy with no loan or lease payment. This upgrade adds energy efficiency, lower utility costs, and long-term savings. The current Net Metering Bridge Rider (NMBR) with Duke expires Dec 31, 2026, as does your ability to transfer your pre-existing contract to this property. It guarantees solar export pricing at the residential rate for 15 years. Another rare downtown perk is off-street parking, so you won't have to hunt for a space when you come home. Step outside your front door into the vibrant downtown lifestyle. You're just six blocks from the Castle Street District and the heart of downtown Wilmington, with easy access to award-winning restaurants, local breweries, boutique shopping, art galleries, live music venues, and the scenic Riverwalk. Whether you're looking for a primary residence, second home, or investment opportunity, this property offers the perfect blend of convenience, charm, and location. Don't miss your chance to own a home on one of downtown Wilmington's iconic brick streets and experience the best of coastal city living.
